A Dick Staub Interview brought back for your enjoyment.

Public intellectual Charles Handy describes ours as the “age of the hungry spirit.” Everyone, it seems, is on a spiritual journey. In such an age it is common to speak glowingly of spiritual journeys and derogatorily about a journey towards God within religion. Tonight we look at the relationship between spiritual journey and religion: Can a person be on a spiritual journey and not a religious journey? Can we be on a religious journey and not a spiritual journey? Is the optimal experience a spiritual journey within a religious tradition? In this segment we’re joined by Len Sweet, futurist, academic and author of Soul Tsunami and Aqua Church. The conversation is joined by Tim Malone, Director of the Ignatian Spirituality Center along with audience questions and comments.
